New R1M owner

Post by gregbeech »

Hey guys

I'm Greg from London and picked up my R1M three weeks ago. I've been riding 15 years and previously owned a SuperDuke 990, ZZR1400, GSX-R750, DRZ-400SM and a bunch of other things.

Been quite a few years since I rode a sports bike so still very much getting used to it and the limits which are so much higher than I'm used to! 600 miles done now and the bike is starting to make sense. Amazing thing, the engine sounds incredible even with the running in limit, and handling and suspension are sublime.

Looking forward to many more miles on it

Greg

Welcome in Greg
I bet that R1M is a tad different to the DRZ-400400SM :lol:
